You and me under the world tree

With this in mind, the maid raised her head.

What catches the eye is the beautiful scenery between the valleys, and what is higher up there are ropes one after another.

"What are those?"

"It's a cableway. It's very troublesome to travel between the mountains by manpower, ma'am, so His Majesty the King ordered the construction of a cableway here to transport supplies, and people can also come and go."

Just as the maid said so, Theotis saw someone passing by in the air, it was a warrior in light leather armor.

He quickly leaped to the other side, and immediately after that, boxes after boxes of supplies flew across the air.

"It must have been time consuming to build."

"But it is very convenient after it is completed. The Jura Mountains are a large fortress for us, and it is also the largest front-line fortress."

Having said that, the maid raised her voice.

"All speed up, we will not spend the night in the mountains! Try to get out of here before dark!"

It's not that dangerous.

In fact, since the Jura Mountains became the territory of the Netherlands, the defense has been consolidated here.

But all that exists in this mountain range is the various forts and towers where the army is stationed.

It is indeed not suitable to camp here.

What's more, since you can speed up to a more comfortable border town, why stop here?

With this in mind, the Dutch team accelerated again.

The leisurely horse picked up his pace.

In this way, the convoy was walking on the road that the mountains had already been built.

And finally, when the sky was glowing fiery red, they finally left the mountains.

In an instant, the vision suddenly became clear.

A tributary of the Rhine: the beautiful Ijssel River flows slowly, and it branches out into several streams, as if flowing far away.

The ding-dong sound of running water in his ears almost made Theotis cry.

Everything here is familiar to her.

But at the same time familiar, there is a lingering strangeness.

Because she saw those extremely conspicuous towers again.

Although some are just a foundation and prototype, the sense of existence itself is extremely strong.

And finally, on the other side of the river, the two flags exude a chilling meaning under the fiery red sunset.

One banner has ravens on it, while the other has running wolves.

The Raven Legion under Siegfried's command!

"These people are..."

"Welcome home!! Legion Commander!"

Finally, the trembling sound resounded on the riverside of Ithel.

And with the roar of the leading warrior, the rest of the warriors immediately stood still.

They trampled on the ground very regularly, as if a certain rhythm, and then, the ancient battle song slowly echoed.

In this battle song, the flag of the wolf and the flag of the raven are interlaced.

Today is an update, adjust your schedule.

Chapter 54: The Human Heart Is Frightening

When the war song slowly echoed, the Dutch convoy also slowly stopped at the other side of the Ijssel River.

And the lingering ancient war song left Theotis at a loss.

"What's going on?" She asked involuntarily.

"The fighters of the Raven Legion are led by the current regiment leader to welcome their leader home."

However, the maid's casual answer made her feel something was wrong.

Although at a glance, she could roughly tell that the number of people on the other side of the river hadn't reached the level of insanity.

Although the wolf flag interlaced with the crow flag, it is obviously the flag of the Raven Legion belonging to the Netherlands.

However, the number of people over there is only more than 1000 people, which is about one-tenth of a reorganized army.

But even so, she still felt worried.

"Without orders to dispatch, can soldiers organize such a large-scale event?" She asked in a low voice.

"This was originally the base of the Raven Legion, and further up is the North Wind Legion, which focuses on amphibious warfare, and to the west is the Misty Demon Legion commanded by Palace Minister Hagen and disrupting the original organization, The war mad legion reorganized after the rectification, these are the frontier legions of our native Netherlands."

Since these are never secrets, even foreign businessmen can hear them after a little inquiry.

Therefore, the maid has no intention of hiding it at all.

"What about within the kingdom's territory?"

Hardly thinking about it, Theotis subconsciously asked.

"There are only two permanent legions in the territory of the Netherlands: the Wolfbone, and the other is the Skywrath Guards."

"what……"

This Theotis has heard of the Skywrath Guards or something.

Even, that kind of name can be said to be very popular in the past period of time.

It is famous because of its origin.

It is said that Siegfried has looted a large number of extremely sophisticated human equipment from the Kingdom of Gurnitahead, and it is speculated that it was an order that had not been delivered before Gurnitahead was destroyed.

And because the dwarven kingdom had been destroyed long ago, the order did not know where to send it, so it became his own spoils of war.

He didn't care about the voices outside asking for an equal share, and directly used this batch of powerful weapons to form a reorganized army with only a few hundred people.

This is the Sky Wrath Guards.

However, what really made this army famous was the previous Burgundian war of annihilation.

It is said that under the leadership of the sage Huoder, the Skywrath Guards rushed into the Worms King City first, and they withstood the counter-charge of thousands of people with only a few dozen people. .

Although this kind of thing is hard for Theotis himself to imagine.

She even felt that these rumors must be exaggerated.

But at the same time, she also understands that rumors must have reality as a reference.

No matter what, the Skywrath Guards were indeed famous.

But compared to this legendary elite army known as the strongest in the Netherlands, she hadn't heard much about the name of another army.

"What are wolf bones?"

"It is the bone of a wolf, and it is also the foundation of everything."

Faced with the cautious doubts shown by Theotis, the maid narrowed her eyes instead.

"Except for guarding the royal city, which symbolizes the face of the king and the peak of the kingdom, the Wolfbone Legion is the only legion in the country."

"Is there only one legion?"

"Yes, but most of the regular establishment of this legion are veterans who have experienced many battles."

"However, the number of people is not enough."

Naturally, a formally organized legion is no more than [-] people.

And it does sound impossible to rely on these 1 people to ensure the stability of the entire territory.

And more importantly, even a person who has left the legion has such popularity.

What to do after that?

Although he didn't say these words, Theotis' expression did show such worry.

"It's okay, the Wolf Valley Legion is essentially an army of instructors, and its essence is to cultivate the next generation of the military for the entire kingdom, so it is the 'Wolf Bones'."

If the wrath of the sky symbolizes the pinnacle of the Dutch fighters.

Then the 'wolf bone' is its basis.

The maid thought she had spoken clearly enough, but when she turned around, she still saw Theotis' worried expression.

And in this case, she didn't know whether the lady understood what she was saying.

But thinking about it carefully, it seems that some worries are unfounded.

It should be said that it is precisely because of the lingering worry in my heart that I subconsciously find the reason for this worry.

But once this kind of worry arises, it is difficult to relieve.

Moreover, as far as the present is concerned, it is not only Theotis who has such worries.

In fact, as the highly sought after party, Halff himself frowned.

"Yo yo, I didn't expect you to look quite popular."

Although he knew that Studus's words were not malicious, he still felt irritated.

"That's not a good sign." He whispered to himself.

Half is actually well aware of his position.

If not counting his delicate pedigree, he has actually climbed to the top as a fighter.

Because he already has the title of lord, and once commanded a legion.

But when he reached this point, he would inevitably be involved in the vortex of the so-called court and power.

avoid arousing suspicion……

This kind of thing is very important.

Think about it carefully, do those kings who are pursuing power want to see those who hold real power under them enjoy themselves?

impossible.

Because only contradictions can make the superiors truly feel at ease.

If you don't want to be so upset, you can only leave the center of power.

But now, Harff realized that some things were not that simple at all.

The so-called influence does not seem to be so easily eliminated.

"What's this called?"

In the end, he couldn't laugh or cry.

It was Bodwall who patted the horse forward, and then patted him on the shoulder.

"Don't worry about anything, our Majesty the King is not so narrow-minded, and the perfect military system of the Netherlands is destined not to cause any big waves."

Anyone with a discerning eye can see this.

Maybe ordinary kings can't shake the so-called traditional system, so they will worry about the lords, and even more worried about the legion commanders who control the military power.

But the Netherlands is special.

For until now, the King has been the object of allegiance to which all Legions must pledge their allegiance.

The Lord of Armies is always in control of the army.

Moreover, now the king is still keen to teach classes and establish colleges, completely expanding his influence to the bottom.
